Don't be fish out of water with the natives on you next aquatic traversal . Attach fish scales to your flippers . The scales can be individually glued on or maybe lined inside flipper mold at manufacture .

Why ?

1) Something out of nothing , use those surplus fish bits

2) Use nature's molecular scale tech for water pressure interface

3) barrier that petroleum product with a more natural material

Go wild - flippers are not the only equipment scales can be patterned to .

What next , fur dive coat ??
